RECKONINGS is being shown online through Spokane’s Jewish Film Festival. The movie reflects on the question of restitution for unspeakable crimes perpetrated during the Holocaust. Would any monetary amount elicit justice for the survivors? This intensely, compelling film asks a group of German and Jewish leaders to take this massive, healing step amid the threat of violence six years following World War II.
RECKONINGS is not a film for the timid. It is bold, honest, and raw. Emotions run at a fever pitch while trying to have frank discussions. The conclusions are mind-boggling, and they will force the viewers to confront our horrific, historical past. RECKONINGS is necessary in order to move forward and find a way to move forward.
